Oh, it is a decimal(15,2) column. (all of them are) Just thought I'd mention everything too... Running Ubuntu 5.0.4, has the Python 2.4.1 package installed, but I have Python 2.3.4 compiled and installed separately for Zope. Zope is compiled with the --with-python flag. Just tried your suggestion, commenting the 'conv[FIELD_TYPE.DECIMAL] = float' line, restart Zope, still have the issue. So, I have the older Python, which I used to have. I could try loading an older Zope, but what I might try is loading the MySQL 5.0.0, which I had before. At least I can hopefully find out which is causing my problem. However, I have Zope 2.7.4 with MySQL 5.0.4 and it works fine, but on Windows using the Egenix adapter. Now, I cant remember what I had for the mysql-python version, it's on the other server at my clients site. (cant get to it right now) I guess one of my main questions too is, would Zope be getting anything from the 2.4.1 Ubuntu packages that are installed if I compiled it with the 2.3.4 python? (mysql-python is installed correctly on 2.3.4 too) On 5/12/05, Andy Dustman <farcepest@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks Andy. I do have those versions. But Python is 2.3.5 because I didnt want to move to 2.4.x as I think I read something in the README for Zope stating it was not tested for compatibility. (right?) I guess my thought is... Does 2.3.5 have the same issue as 2.4 regarding the decimals? For now, I am just going to setup 2.3.4 and run with it.
The Python decimal type is new in 2.4.
I don't think you've actually said whether or not you are actually using a DECIMAL column.
I had forgotten that ZMySQLDA-2.0.9b3 always returns DECIMAL columns as Python float. If you look in ZMySQLDA/db.py, you can see where it does this in the DB class. You could try commenting this line out, which will cause it to be returned as a string, and restarting Zope. It's something to try, at least. -- Computer interfaces should never be made of meat. http://www.terrybisson.com/meat.html _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
